<p>For at least 15 years, President Donald Trump has been adamant that the Islamic Republic of Iran must never have a nuclear weapon.</p>
<p>“President Donald J. Trump has never wavered in his stance that Iran cannot be allowed to have a nuclear weapon — a pledge he has made repeatedly, both in office and on the campaign trail,” the White House <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/06/president-trump-has-always-been-clear-iran-cannot-have-a-nuclear-weapon/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a June statement.</p>
<p>And the White House is correct. Trump has been warning about the dangers of a nuclear-armed Iran since before he ran for president. In a 2011 social media post, he called Iran’s pursuit of nuclear weapons “a major threat to our nation’s national security interests,” adding, “We can&#8217;t allow Iran to go nuclear.”</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">Iran&#8217;s quest for nuclear weapons is a major threat to our nation&#8217;s national security interests. We can&#8217;t allow Iran to go nuclear.</p>
<p>— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) <a href="https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/132495976639377408?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 4, 2011</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Trump bluntly expressed these views on the campaign trail during the 2016 election.</p>
<p>Speaking at a 2015 campaign rally in Des Moines, Iowa, Trump said nuclear weapons in the hands of rogue actors like Iran pose a grave risk to the United States.</p>
<p>&#8220;You can take out the east coast of this country,&#8221; he said. &#8220;You can take out large sections of the Midwest. You can take out things that were unthinkable, the power. And we have to be in a position where that never, ever, ever happens.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Here is a list of instances where President Trump voiced his opposition to Iran obtaining nuclear weapons:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>“Iran can’t have a nuclear weapon.

<li>“They can’t have a nuclear weapon — and now they’re very close to having one and it’s very dangerous for the world, very dangerous for the world.
